yep, my baby bro told me that John Deere dealership was the largest in Kansas...and that's saying something.
My heart aches for the Mennonites up there. Those fine people have provided disaster relief services around the country for decades. I hope some of the communities they've helped return the kindness now that they need a hand.

Yep. I was going to say that tornados bring out the really ****tiest types of people. And I would gurantee y'all that looters are in Greensburg. In 1992 tornados that ripped through Wichita and South Central Kansas brought out plenty of white trash looters as well.

May 6-- Four Fort Riley soldiers were arrested for looting from a store in Greensburg.
Major General Tod Bunting, the state's adjutant general, said the soldiers came to Greensburg to help on their own, and were not
part of any official detachment.
Few details were available, but Bunting says the four went into a store last night and took more merchandise than the owner wanted them to take. He was not sure what store they went into, but it was
one of the few buildings still standing after Friday night's storm.
Bunting also did not know exactly what the soldiers took.
He said the soldiers were being held at the Pratt County Jail. He did not know if they had been charged.
The Pratt County sheriff's office said it would release information later in the day.

Though this doesn't look that bad. The story does say,
the four went into a store last night and took more merchandise than the owner wanted them to take.
Sounds like the owner gave them permission to take what they wanted just probably not THAT much. The soldiers were probably trying to gather food and supplies for several friends and family.
A little more info from KAKE
May 6-- Four Fort Riley soldiers and a reserve police officer were arrested today for looting cigarettes and alcohol from a store in Greensburg.
Major General Tod Bunting, the state's adjutant general, said the soldiers and reserve police officer were not part of any official detachment.
Sharon Watson, a spokeswoman for the adjutant general's office, said the five were arrested at a Dillon's supermarket. They and were being held at the Pratt County Jail without bond. She said all five were in uniform, so police allowed them to come and go freely despite a curfew in the town.
Watson said the officer was from a central Kansas community, but she was not sure which town.
In a separate incident, two people wearing Red Cross jackets who were not members of the Red Cross were arrested for looting. Watson
said she did not have any additional details.

Another story from what was originally posted? As usual knowitallitis to the rescue.
So the owner of the store says take what you need. Soldiers need smokes and booze. Well, then the store owner gets all upity and calls the cops. Yeah and.... :rolleyes:
If by "knowitallitis" you mean "actually uses the most recent story that contains actual facts as opposed to initial conjecture (followed by the phrases 'did not know exactly what the soldiers took' and 'The Pratt County sheriff's office said it would release information later in the day') to formulate an opinion on said story", then I am guilty as charged.
You know, there's making an honest mistake, and then there's simply being too big of a prick to admit that you're wrong. Congratulations on your graduation to the latter. :rolleyes:

Cry me a river dude. The comment I made was that it initially doesn’t sound as bad as it could be, because the store owner gave the soldiers permissions to take stuff. That was based upon the most recent story I had to go on. As the story progresses we’re learing more and more about what happened. Panties in a wad much? :rolleyes:
Oh and uh....
You know, there's making an honest mistake, and then there's simply being too big quick to judge somebody. Congratulations on your graduation to the latter
Wow, it took you two tries at that post, and that was STILL the best you could manage?

Smokes and booze?
That's essential equipment.

So this dude had to protect you AND got to boss you around? What'd you do to become his b*tch?

Well, not real sure what a backward dancer is, but at least I never had to have anyone stand up for me or tell me what to do or else I'd get my *** kicked. Go ahead and negspek me and 'put me in my noob corner', I won't lose sleep over it.
It's kinda funny that someone like you calls me a derogatory name from your desk chair being an internet badass with however many posts you have. I hope it makes you feel better - seriously - whatever it takes to make up for being a great big ***** for having someone protect you and tell you what to do earlier in life. So- while you sit there and think of another incredibly lame derogatory term for me, I'm going to go back to studying for my finals, then make plans to go be social when finals are over and not contribute thousands upon thousands of posts wasting my life away in front of a computer screen.
